The case of the leaking storage case.


Dear Editor,

We have lots of trouble with the M56 smoke generator's weapons storage case not sealing out water.

When the case is opened, operators find standing water in the bottom and any BII BII Bank Internasional Indonesia

 a good idea to just leave a big sponge in the case to make it easier to mop up the water.

If you're in an area with lots of rain, have your direct support drill a drain hole In each end of the case no larger than 3/16 inch and about 1/4 inch From the bottom and front side edges. Empty the case before drilling. Touch up the area with paint to prevent corrosion. That way water can't collect.
